The grind continues ever onward as work continues to attempt to kill me. TheEnergyNews is going splendidly, and many of the things that had me saying”yikes” prior to launch are now just little “eeps”. I’m lucky that I work with a lot of bright people; without them there’s no way I could have kept everything straight.

Home is getting better now as Ali and I continue to adapt to the changes in our life. We’re starting to settle on a routine that works for us - as soon as it works for Faye all will be well. Ali carries the worst of the load at home, but is keeping on her brave face. We’re both exhausted mentally and physically, but we’re yet to start taking it out on each other which is a bonus.

Faye makes eye contact now. She’ll just stare right at me… or bright lights. I always lose to bright lights. In a relatively dark room though, it’s me she stares at and it’s pretty cool. Honestly, newborn babies have always scared the living bejeebles out of me, so prior to having one of my own I never thought that they did much more than poop and cry. Now I know that they don’t do much but poop and cry, but the stuff they do do (doo doo?) is pretty entertaining.

Ali and I are heading out tonight and leaving the baby with my brother Grant and his fiance Crystal. This is new, we’ll see how Ali and I do. My guess? Not well, but hopefully we’ll get used to it. Grant has demanded $20/hour (which I will never pay him), and declared that he will spend the entire time making out with Chrissy on the couch.

I’m leaving now… gads!
